Atlanta's only night-time local talk show

R

RickRose

I have been enjoying having a local talk show on at night but thought the slogan was a little weird.

This is actually WSB's only purely local talk/issues show on the air weekdays. Funny that the most popular station in Atlanta has to wait til 10pm to air a local talk program. Remember that Neal Boortz was local for many years but not now. Clark was once local, Sean was once local and Atlanta's Morning News is not a talk program.

Boortz & Clark may be syndicated, but they are still local. I know when Clark was on vacation a few weeks back, WSB had Eileen Glink (sp) on in his place, while the national feed aired "best of's".

Boortz is local for 30 minutes.

Boortz may be syndicated, but I like that he still deals with a lot of local issues. He may apologize to the national listeners, but he'll bring up local tangents.<P ID="signature">______________

Of course, he can't have it both ways. But when you figure that all of 6 people actually listen outside of Atlanta, Ft. Myers, College Station, and Grand Junction, I guess there's no one to be miffed anyway.

Although, the post below mentions he's local for 1/2 hr; isn't it 1-1/2 hrs, 8:30-10?
